x^{2}=4x_{4}+1-3
Multiply 4 and \frac{1}{4} to get 1.
x^{2}=4x_{4}-2
Subtract 3 from 1 to get -2.
4x_{4}-2=x^{2}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
4x_{4}=x^{2}+2
Add 2 to both sides.
\frac{4x_{4}}{4}=\frac{x^{2}+2}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
x_{4}=\frac{x^{2}+2}{4}
Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.
x_{4}=\frac{x^{2}}{4}+\frac{1}{2}
Divide x^{2}+2 by 4.
